The Marvel gods have spoken!

The Marvel gods have spoken! Yes, they've finally explained Thor's absence from Captain America: Civil War in a hilarious new three-and-a-half-minute mockumentary just dropped on Marvel Facebook and Twitter.

In the short, titled Team Thor, it turns out that our favourite hammer-wielding superhero, played to deadpan perfection by Chris Hemsworth, needed some "me time" after saving the earth.

So, the Norse god moved to Australia to live with "average sort of everyday guy" Darryl. Thor wraps his head around basic things like household chores, office work (including sending an "electronic letter" to Captain America and Iron Man) and mobile phone conversations ("I don't have a phone. Send a raven").

Mark Ruffalo, who plays The Hulk, even makes a cameo ahead of his upcoming return in Thor: Ragnarok.

The short, put together by Thor: Ragnarok director Taika Waititi, teases the kind of humour fans can expect from the third Thor film, which is currently shooting in Queensland.

Team Thor is part of the bonus features on the Captain America: Civil War digital, DVD and Blu-Ray release, out this week.
